Similar means that the Health Neighbourhood is similar to Durham Region for that indicator.When "LOWER" or "HIGHER" is in blue, the indicator is neutral in terms of health. Green means that the Neighbourhood is doing better in terms of health than Durham Region and red indicates it is worse.Estimates marked with an asterisk (*) have high variability and should be used with caution.
